Jacob

jacob climbs the tree again;
with a pocket full of mistletoe.
he sits on a branch
and swings his feet,
watching all the girls below.

now jacob,
sitting there,
looks oh so sweet;
and the girls can't wait
to be swept off their feet.
he helps them up
through the branches,
where he tells them
they're his everything.

now,
jacob is no gentleman;
but he's easily mistaken
for one.
it's not his fault;
it's theirs,
he swears.
owing to how
he never tried to be one.

so once again,
we find our friend
caught in quite
the predicament.
it seems the girls
get stuck in his tree,
even after he's
through with them.

his friends all point
and laugh at him;
because he's gone
and done it again.

while all the girls
line up below,
hoping
for a chance
to spend the day
kissing in the tree
with my friend
jacob.
